Bill Maher Turns On Hillary, Tells Her To “Stay In The Woods”

Liberal discontent with Hillary Clinton’s performance is nothing new. However, when it gets bad enough that Bill Maher is criticizing you, maybe it’s time to throw in the towel.

On his Friday show, the “Real Time” host stunned many media watchers when he criticized the former Democrat candidate for her reported desire to run for public office again.

Maher made reference to a speech she made last month in Pennsylvania on St. Patrick’s Day.

“I’m like a lot of my friends right now. I have a hard time watching the news, I’ll confess,” Hillary said, according to The New York Times. “I am ready to come out of the woods and to help shine a light on what is already happening around kitchen tables, at dinners like this.”

By that last part, I’m assuming she didn’t mean she was going to be turning down the role as Cinderella in the Chappaqua Community Theatre’s production of Sondheim’s “Into the Woods.” This intimation and the rumors surrounding another campaign were enough to make Maher apoplectic.

“Hillary, stay in the woods, OK?” Maher said.

“You had your shot. You f***ed it up. You’re Bill Buckner. We had the World Series, and you let the grounder go through your legs,” Maher continued, referencing the Boston Red Sox first baseman whose infamous blooper was partially responsible for the team losing the 1986 World Series to the New York Mets. “Let someone else have the chance.

“The fact that she’s coming back, it just verifies every bad thing anyone’s ever thought about the Clintons, that it’s all about them,” Maher continued. “Let some of the other, shorter trees get a little sunlight.”

While we certainly don’t agree with much of Maher’s message, if you’re a Democrat and even he thinks it’s time for you to go, it’s time for you to go.

Don’t fret, Hillary. I’m sure you can find something else to do besides run for public office yet again. Heck, that Cinderella role is probably still available. Why not give the Community Theatre a call?
